Scott Hartman v. Florida Department of Corrections

FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF FLORIDA _____________________________ No. 1D20-2794 _____________________________ SCOTT HARTMAN, Appellant, v. FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, Appellee. _____________________________ On appeal from the Circuit Court for Leon County. Charles W. Dodson, Judge. November 4, 2020 PER CURIAM. Upon consideration of Appellant’s response to the Court’s order of September 29, 2020, the Court has determined that the notice of appeal was not timely filed. Because this is a civil matter, Appellant’s request that the Court grant him a belated appeal is denied. See Powell v. State, 727 So. 2d 1103 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. JAY, M.K. THOMAS, and NORDBY, JJ., concur.  _____________________________ Not final until disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or 9.331. _____________________________ Scott Hartman, pro se, Appellant.
